In 2019 I drove myself to the emergency room gasping for air, because my mitral valve regurgitation had filled my lungs with fluid and my ejection fraction was a deadly 14. They pumped a gallon of edema fluid from my body and lungs, and they still won't repair my two leaking heart valves, apparently because I don't suffer the symptoms enough. They don't have the courage to tell me yes, your heart valves are causing your symptoms but we are not going to help you, so they lie to me and tell me the symptoms are from sleep apnea or my kidney, because if they admitted they were caused by my heart valve they would have to fix or replace them. The cardiac industry is a fraud, they are chasing the money. They will perform scans and imaging and tests you don't need because they want the money. Not all of them of course, but when they have monetized you all they can they can put you out to pasture to die. I'm angry, posting this for you from the pasture.

My valve stopped working after a surgical revision on a left knee replacement in the recovery room. I CODED. 4/7/17Knew from echo of mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation August 2016 before knee replaced. You never know when it craps out. Heart murmurs since childhood. Ask plenty of questions once you know your condition. Pig valve installation was May 2017. Thank the almighty I was in a hospital and not driving a car.

Trivial leakage with no progression? Significant leakage with progression? "Mild" MR but with enlarged left ventricle and left atrium? What if Atrial Fibrillation ensues?

I was just diagnosed with this 😔

didn't answer what happens when you have moderately leakage? Or more severe leakage does that always lead to enlargement? They wait for people to get seriously sick before they operate so they want you to be in agony risking heart failure and then there's no risk to them.
